Good Morning Guys, can anybody help me, please? I updated my computer (clean install) from Windows 7 to latest version of Windows 10 (Pro (64bit) if that important). New installation of Codebook incl. activation runs smooth and without problems. I use in general the Wifi Sync. But I get a lot of trouble with that. Sync starts and progress bar appears (until 90% I assume), but stops with an error message on Windows side (network connection error). Steps I allready done: Windows restarted (sereval times), use Admin account. Restart Codebook App on iphone (iOS 10.2.1), restart complete iPhone Change (Windows) network connection from public to home Disable Windows Firewall Disable Windows Defender (build in at Win10) Disable Kaspersky Scanner Restart Router (FritzBox 7390) Read FAQ and searching in this forum … running now out of ideas and hope somebody have some more tips, please. Crazy thing for me is, with Windows 7 (same computer, same iPhone, same network) it runs perfect. Changed to Windows 10 and have the issue “network error” at the end of the sync proccess. It will be great is there an idea I can try. best regards Magnus ---

Hello @magnusho Thank you for writing us with regard to Codebook, although I’m sorry to hear about the issue you are seeing. It can be very difficult to troubleshoot network issues due to the large number of variables involved, but there are definitely a few things we can try here. We’ve written up a short set of common troubleshooting instructions here: > [@Troubleshooting WiFi Sync](https://discuss.zetetic.net/t/troubleshooting-wifi-sync/36): > > Enable WiFi Sync on the Desktop Before we get started, be sure that: You have [enabled WiFi sync](https://discuss.zetetic.net/t/getting-started-with-sync/35) under Codebook preferences on the Desktop Codebook is currently running on the Desktop and you are logged in Interference Are you running the Windows or OS X firewall, a VPN client, virus protection software or a similar product? If so, please try to configure your software to allow connections to port 57419. This should allow connection attempts from Codebook on your mobile device to Codebook runn… Would you mind giving some of the suggestions in this document a try, and let us know what you find? If none of these options work, it might be worthwhile to use Dropbox or Google Drive to sync your data, as it bypasses many of the common issues with WIFI synchronization. Here is a brief document that explains how to sync via alternate methods. > [@Getting Started with Sync](https://discuss.zetetic.net/t/getting-started-with-sync/35): > > construction This article is out of date For new documentation for Codebook 4, [please visit this page](https://www.zetetic.net/codebook/documentation/sync/). construction There are two main methods of sync for Codebook: Syncing directly with another copy over WiFi Syncing with a cloud service over HTTPS (Dropbox or Google Drive) Desktop WiFi Sync We call the first case Desktop WiFi sync because it’s for Codebook on a mobile device (e.g. Android, iPhone) to sync with Codebook on the desktop ([Mac](https://www.zetetic.net/codebook/download-trial-osx.html) or [Windows](https://www.zetetic.net/codebook/download-trial-windows.html)).

Hi, thank you for your response. As I wrote, I read your FAQ very carefully and tried allready following steps: > [@magnusho](#): > > Windows restarted (sereval times), use Admin account.Restart Codebook App on iphone (iOS 10.2.1), restart complete iPhoneChange (Windows) network connection from public to homeDisable Windows Firewall Disable Windows Defender (build in at Win10)Disable Kaspersky ScannerRestart Router (FritzBox 7390)Read FAQ and searching in this forum Furthermore I de-activated the IPv6 connection and use only IPv4. **(Image Removed)** No Firewall, no Windows Defender, No Virus-Scanner… ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zetetic/original/1X/74877c0871f3718666b4d05a26bf9b0782ee2c42.png) That is the result **(Image Removed)** What is strange for me, the Codebook App closed immediately when the error message appears. It seems, that the codebook app have a problem? But that cannot be, because I did not change anything on my iPhone… I changed my computer (OS only) from Win7 to Win10. Do you have any ideas, please best regards Magnus ---

Hello @magnusho I noticed it appears Kaspersky is still running, but in a paused state from the screenshot you provided. Would it be possible to fully shut down all Kaspersky software, just to rule out any interplay that may be occuring? Also, are you attempting a restore or synchronization of your data over WiFi? Do both operations exhibit the same behavior? ---

Hi, thank you for your prompt response. To be sure, I deinstalled Kaspersky and deactivated Windows Defender (its activated automatically after I de-install Kaspersky). Nothing is change, same error message (network error). I have the strong feeling that something is wrong with the app, because the app closed without any notification. I checked the Diag and usage report at my iphone ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zetetic/original/1X/0473d26b56a53408874375e226c210be1335830b.png) Is there a chance to sent you one of the reports to you? There are a lot of “cryptical” information in… Magnus ---
